Will a Psychotherapist help me overcome my issues faster rather than go through slow and painful processes?

I am 19 years old, 2 months shy of my 20th birthday, and I have Asperger's Syndrome. Not only that, but I have anxiety and emotional problems. I have limitations, because of a specific phobia which most essentially gets in the way of me doing any activity, not that I am agoraphobic or whatever. I am sensitive to certain noises, and cannot stand to hear the sound of crying noises (especially from babies and children under 6 who are prone to loud, emotional, tearful, and cranky, bawling, hissy-fit meltdowns with little understanding of the world around them; it's 100% annoying, painful, and upsetting.). When watching television, I always mute or change the channels when there's crying. At the movies, I tend to walk out at the scenes containing crying. Whenever I am in a situation which a baby - child tantrums crying emotionally, I cover my ears and do with all I can to move away (even it's essentially too loud for the noise to be blocked), my stomach dives and gets a churning pain, my heart palpatates, the rythm and edge to the hysterical crying hits my ears like a bullet, my head inside is whirring, and I am unable to look alive, function, nor do anything. I also cannot think after it happens, and I have the ability to mutter things to myself or whatsoever. My stomach still is in churning pain. The crying noises give me this emotional trauma. My psychiatrist told me that it was a panic attack. To me, it's almost like hearing some woman in a 1930s horror film scream.

I am unable to go to church every Sunday, because crying babies - children are essentially prone to doing this intermittently during Mass, although there are a number of the parents who do escort them to the hallways / crying room.

Whenever my family and I fly, I always keep my ipod and blast the music in my ears even if I try to function with them, which according to my dad thinks is an absurd disposition. We sit in the back row in the plane, which is most essentially away from babies - little children (sitting in a row on a plane near a crying baby can most essentially ruin your enjoyment in the flight), but luckily I keep the ipod on and blast the music on so I can hear nothing but the music I listen to.

I keep it on from when we arrive at the airport, when we fly, and when we leave the airport.

I get nervous whenever we are in crowded areas (cities, towns, etc.), where people all ages get around. If I'm out on my own, if a baby gets strolled or whatsoever, I alter to another direction. I don't mind students walking throughout the hallways of my school.

I also get nervous going to a restaurant, and try to avoid sitting at a table less than a couple tables close to a family with a baby, young children or whatnot.

What's it gonna take me to get used to this? I would insist on having a quick cure rather than going through the slow and painful process. I assume that I should start with practicing coping skills (even with my anxiety, etc.) to help me feel less nervous and anxious. Would that desensitize that? What will it take to get used to handling the noise? People think that others who cry is most essentially upsetting and handling babies - children who get cranky is upsetting and frustrating for families. Rather than have a timid and severe affection on this, I would rather still find it upsetting but would get 20% sensitive, way less sensitive than I am now. I don't want to have this issue anymore, and I want to get over this quickly, but I get agitated if it would be done the hard way, which I don't want to work. I want more than what I am now. My parents say I am the best and make great achievements, especially in school. I am eager to do specific job tasks (helping someone out, washing the dishes, putting clothes in the dryer, blah blah blah). I am doing with all I can to finish school and go to college where I wish to pursue my career in art and photography. My teachers know that I am successful in school, and I have been on the honor roll many times. I have passed both English and Math MCAS tests.

I am also eager to run to the convenient store for errands. After school, I make my way home from school on the subway train.

I think going to places are interesting, but the feeling of apprehension takes over my body as if I am afraid to go out. If you have anything to say about this, please answer this and tell me what you know. I hope the advice you give me will please me and be an appeal of interest to me.

Thank you and have a glorious happy new year!

Oh, and I will add some details if I have more to say (in which I should have included in this message).
